Karl Ehn (1884–1957) was a Viennese architect and city planner.

Among other structures, Ehn designed the colossal Karl-Marx-Hof, the largest and best example of innovative public housing built during the Red Vienna movement. Ehn worked as technical director for the City of Vienna and was a student of Otto Wagner. According to Joseph Rykwert, after the Anschluss in 1938 Ehn continued to serve the city under the Nazis.
